Winter is one of my favorite beauty seasons. The cold allows for dramatic lashes, red lips and clothes with sequins. We don't have to worry about frizzy hair or butt sweat. As long as you stay hydrated and cozy, you'll get through this winter looks as amazing as ever!

I don't know whether its just because I'm living in NJ or what, but I've kinda of become a mani bitch. Right now I'm super into the Chanel color Mysterious. Aptly named, the color looks navy sometimes and then other times dark green...and from far away it looks black. What else could you ask for? The mood ring of the best Fall Colors in one polish. And I can't afford anything else Chanel, so theres that. Top it off with a fresh matte top coat and we are good to go.

So your eyes are not deceiving you, the next product is from that end of the aisle drugstore brand NYC. This is by far the best stain I've come across recently. It has good staying power but isn't so serious that if I get cut off by another enraged Jersey Driver and swerve everywhere while trying to apply, I can still touch up. (this is a real problem in my life btw) And its also $2.99, so buy every color. Right now I can't get enough of Red Ruby, and the Berry stain is also pretty rad.

This product is a total lifesaver. I'm so lazy about washing my hair, its such a time commitment! So I try to make my blowouts last as long as possible. On the days where I'm kind of pushing it and a hat makes me look too much like a misplaced hipster, I use the Brazilian Blowout brand Instant Body Volume Boost powder. Basically the Queen of all dry shampoos, it gives the most volume out of any I've tried. Because, New Jersey.

Probably my most tried and true product in the list, Zents is only thing I will use on my skin. This brand is from Colorado and all ingredients are grown on an organic family farm. I could do a blog on this brand alone, but for now I wanna highlight the body oil. A mix of Vitamin E, sunflower and jojoba oils, it can be used as a hot hair oil treatment, cuticle treatment, message oil, after sun treatment in the summer and in the winter I mix it with my Zents Body Butter for the most touchable skin in the universe. (im all about multitasking for my money) Don't buy cheap skin care and rub plastic and crap all over your body. Do yourself a favor and indulge, you and your skin are gonna be together for a long time.

And lets face it, the prettiest girls around, no matter what season, are happy girls. So smile and remember that you're a bad bitch, with great nails, skin and hair to match.

We are serious winos. No really. We love wine. So when we saw this article from Elite Daily it was like the Heavens had opened up and dropped the Ultimate Life Hack.

According to scientists at Canada's University of Alberta,

a glass of red wine may have the same effects on the body as an hour at the gym due to a compound in red wines called resveratrol.

Um, excuse us?!

The rational ladies inside of us know that we can't completely replace the gym with wine, (I'm pretty sure we've been trying to do the exact opposite after this intense month of holiday parties) but theres something so justifying about finding out more reasons why wine is still the most bad ass and heart healthy boozy drink out there.

It's really cold and it's only going to get worse. How are you supposed to afford an expensive gym and actually leave your house to get to there? The answer of course is YouTube. Over the last few years I've had gym memberships that went to waste because at the end of the day I would much rather exercise in the comfort of my own home. I'm going to share my two favorite work out ladies with you guys in hopes of helping you maintain a healthy lifestyle and fight the winter blues.

I've been working out with Leslie since I was in High School and I'm still going strong only now instead of DVD's I stream her online. Thank you technology. The exercise is so simple but so effective. Occasionally I get crazy and use 1 pound hand or leg weights to speed up the toning and it works.

My 2nd go to is Tiffany Rothe. Her work outs are much shorter but she recommends doing them 3 times unless you're following her work out plan online. My fave is the 10 minute booty shaking work out but I really love them all. You WILL feel the burn!

I'd like to start off by saying that I'm so excited to be a part of the House Of Correia team and to watch it growing from the ground up.

Keriann and Ange are an endless source of creativity and inspiration.

So, it's Fall! Whether you've been working your butt off all summer or you're just heading back to school after a relaxing break, I've got some great tips for the ladies out there. These are essentials I've discovered on my journey. There are some things a great night's sleep just can't give you. So without further ado, I present you with this list:

Baby Powder Power

Baby powder. Yes, that's right. When I don't have time to wash my hair—or maybe I just don't want to—I put baby powder in it and it soaks up all the extra moisture. It's the cheap version of dry shampoo. Of course you can also purchase dry shampoo. I recommend Evo Water Killer.

Coconut Love

Coconut oil. I could and maybe will write an entire blog post just about this magical substance. I use it as facial moisturizer, lip gloss, make up remover, lube, hand lotion, teeth whitening, not to mention cooking. It has a low melting temp and melts once it touches your skin so throw some in a little jar and take it everywhere. I put it in old lip balm containers.

Wispy Clean Breath

Wisps. I just had the best garlicky dish of my life and I'm about to go to a meeting or an audition. This little gem fits in my bag, is disposable and unlike travel size mouth wash, won't spill all over my bag. Ultimately, saving me the embarrassment of pulling a soggy headshot out of my bag.

Witching Hour

Witch hazel. Break outs happen. Throwing some of this on your face has many benefits. It helps fight acne, reduce puffy eyes, heals hickies—I mean, bruises ;)—fights razor burn, sunburn and eczema! Did I mention it will only set you back about $1.29?

Beat It

Egg beaters. This sounds weird and I resisted them for such a long time but when I'm in a rush this is the puuuuurfect solution to a filling breakfast. No eggshells to deal with so you don't have to wash your hands 5 times and they have both whole egg and egg white versions at any local grocery store. I don't know how I survived before this genius little hack.

Guilty Pleasure Must Have

Stretch jeans. Being comfortable while looking great is imperative to how we feel about ourselves. I'm obsessed with the Uniqlo jeggings. They look incredible and give you a polished look without a lot of effort and all the comfort. These are the most affordable option, however if you want something a little more high end, I'd recommend yoga business pants.

Coherent breathing. Last but not least, the glue that holds it all together. Every day I take 5 minutes when I first wake up, on the train, in my car before I drive somewhere, in a bathroom or a coffee shop and I close my eyes, take a deep breath in and count to 4 in my head. I repeat the same thing as I exhale. I either set a 2 minute timer on my phone or do 8 sets. Thoughts come and go but I do my best to not hold on to them. This helps increase concentration and gives me some "me time". I feel like the day is mine and I'm in control. If you take anything away from this post, I hope it's this final hack.
